WE asked children from Hartburn Primary School in Stockton, what recycling does your family do?

Lucy McCartney, nine: “We recycle magazines and papers and stuff. We have never recycled bottles or anything, but I think my grandma does. We put them into one of those recycling bins or boxes and the recycling man comes and picks them up.”

Imagen Foster, eight: “We have got a blue box that we put beer bottles in and we recycle tins. We put it in the blue box and then when it gets full we put them all in a big bag and take it to those big boxes that you put them in.”

Thomas McCaffrey, eight: “Just glass and bottles and newspapers. We put them in the blue box and put it on the drive.”
